<u>Answer:</u>
f(x) = (2x + 1)(2x − 1)
Explanation:
As we can see from the above function f(x) = 4
− 1, we need to find x-intercept, i.e., the value of x where this function's value is zero.
So let us Equate the function with zero
4
- 1 = 0 => 4
= 1 =>
= 1/4 => x = 
Hence we get 2 values of x, i.e., +1/2, and -1/2.
So now we need to check out the functions which are zero at this values of x, so let us substitute values of x in each and every option and see the values of functions.
Option A - f(x) = (4x + 1)(4x − 1) = 3, -3
Option B - f(x) = (2x + 1)(2x − 1) = 0
Option C - f(x) = 4(x2 + 1) = 5
Option D - f(x) = 2(x2 − 1) = -3/2
Hence answer is Option B
Answer: 0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A denotes the event that employees are college graduates.
B denotes that the event that employees have more than ten years of experience.
As per given , we have
P(A)=0.51
P(B)=0.47
P(A∪B)=0.77
We know that , 


Hence, the probability that a randomly selected employee will have more than ten years of experience and be a college graduate = 0.21
Answer: a. 0.14085
b. 3.826 x 
c. 0.5437
d. 0.0811
Step-by-step explanation:
Given average amount parents and children spent per child on back-to-school clothes in Autumn 2010 ,
= $527
Given standard deviation ,
= $160
Let X = amount spent on a randomly selected child
Also Z =
a. Probability(X>$700) = P(
>
) = P(Z>1.08125) = 0.14085 {Using Z % table}
b. P(X<100) = P( Z <
) = P(Z< -2.66875) = P(Z > 2.66875) = 3.826 x 
c. P(450<X<700) = P(X<700) - P(X<=450)
P(X<700) = 1 - P(X>=700) = 1 - 0.14085 = 0.8592
P(X<=450) = P(Z<=
) = P(Z<= -0.48125) = P(Z<=0.48125) = 0.3155
So final P(450<X<700) = 0.8592 - 0.3155 = 0.5437
d. P(X<=300) = P(Z<=
) = P(Z<= -1.4188) = P(Z>=1.4188) = 0.0811
All the above probabilities are calculated using Z % table along with interpolation between two values.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

2.43 + 1.62 + 124.77 = 178.82 Because all you have to do is add up all the numbers (Don't take the decimals out, leave them in) And then you get: 178.82.
Hope I helped!
